  1. Holy shit, that’s nuts. He needs to be wrangled in.
  2. I’m slowly becoming more convinced zeihan is really a clandestine glue sniffer.
  3. https://www.wsj.com/world/europe/ukraine-fights-to-widen-its-puncture-of-russian-front-lines-141459a6?st=6lesso164tf37dr&reflink=share_mobilewebshare
  4. Are they closing? I remember going in there as a student many moons ago.
  5. Early season anywhere is a crapshoot. I lived in Denver a while and my take is that Colorado doesn’t get as much coverage as some other western states. You’ll be seeing 40” bases on most places that aren’t wolf creek in December, if you’re lucky. I like to have 60-80 before I’m not worried about finding rocks and stumps while I’m running trees.
  6. How are y’all not finding the news that Russian air defenses shot down the plane? I was on financial times and they reported that a couple of missiles were launched from Russian air defense towards the jet. I also saw the Twitter videos of it falling from the sky, it looked broken like it had been impacted by something.
  7. You had me with the stream pics but that last one is the piece de resistance.
  8. Once you go ventilated seats I can’t imagine having to go back. Especially down here in the south.
  9. Another layer is that france makes a large amount of their domestic power from nuclear energy. Niger is a former French colony and exports a lot of uranium to france. Kazakhstan and Russia are some of the other major suppliers of uranium. So in essence this is an extension of the energy war Putin is trying to play.
  10. Quick look over the specs, seems like the GX would be a better buy given the overlap between the two.
  11. The new Land Cruiser is a Land Cruiser Prado, it’s a smaller version sold overseas. We had a shit pile of them for rolling around in the oilfield when I worked in Kazakhstan. Came with a five speed manual and a turbo diesel. Indestructible naturally.
  12. I’ve used some higher end rods and some cheaper rods and the lesser rods feel super clunky and rigid when I borrow someone’s, like I’m casting with a log.
  13. Hardy shadow 5 wt and a $200ish reel would keep you in business for a long time as you grow your skills. I always liked these guys for gear reviews. https://www.yellowstoneangler.com/gear-review/
  14. When I was rotating to Kazakhstanwe stopped flying over Ukraine after they shot down MH317. We started flying north to Moscow then west over to Amsterdam. Then once russia invaded in 22 we stopped flying over russia and went south along the Black Sea over Turkey then through Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, then north up the Caspian.
  15. I spent five years in Kazakhstan. That lack of emotion is very Russian in nature.
  16. Damn man that’s awesome. Looks really good. Lots of icing on the cake
  17. At my company, and it’s a big one, there’s no penalties for SWA. I’ve used it multiple times and each time it was pretty damn obvious that someone was doing something pretty stupid that could get themselves or others hurt or killed.
  18. Which portion of the green? Above flaming gorge? Or below it.
  19. I didn’t realize it until somewhat recently but I learned that herdez is a subsidiary of hormel foods. It kind of took the magic away for me. The salsa is still pretty damn good though.
  20. The last big winter there in spring 17 I was crushing corn snow off the top double black diamonds in June wearing shorts and a long sleeve. Was actually nearly just as good as powder.
  21. Yea they’re shipping it through the Caspian up to Astrakhan.
  22. I just bought a P365XL. What holsters do y’all recommend for IWB?
